WHEREAS, Change Order No. 3 in the amount of $9,979.20 executed on
December 12, 2006 for additional paint prep work on auditorium ceiling beams due to
water damage; and,
WHEREAS, Change orders Nos. 4, 5 and 6 were required as shown below:
Change Order No.4 submitted December 12,2006 in an amount of$17,139.07
includes:
1) Installation of new ceiling grids and ceiling tiles in foyers and stairways, control
room, 2"d floor concession area, and 1 st floor meeting room. These areas were
omitted in the original plans and specifications. After construction began and
these areas were opened, damaged ceiling tiles and rusted grids were
discovered.
2) Installation of drywall in restrooms to accommodate raised floor. Drywall had
to be raised to accommodate raised floor in restrooms.
3) Add an overlay of sheetrock to paneled rooms previously scheduled for repainting
in the 2"d floor offices. The existing paneled walls were scheduled to be painted but
upon closer inspection, damage to the 30 year old paneling was noted, thus the
decision was made to overlay the paneling with sheetrock.
4) Furnish and install acoustical ceilings in 2"d floor north and south corridors. The
original plans called for recessed lighting with plaster ceilings. Since these are
office and dressing room corridors that will not be open to the public, it was
decided to lower the ceiling and install acoustical tiles.
5) Replacement of rusted metal studs found in restroom walls,janitor closets and
other interior room walls. The studs were rusted from water leaks not known
until existing walls were removed.
Change Order No.5 submitted December 13,2006 in an amount of$38,396.45
includes:
1) Leveling of restroom floors. After demolition of existing restrooms, it was
discovered that the floors were not level due to the settling of the foundation on
the north and south sides of the building. The floors need to be raised 2 Y2 to
3 %2 inches to accommodate the installation of new restroom facilities and
flooring. After consulting with a structural engineer, it was determined that the
floors could be leveled by using concrete and a leveling compound. In addition,
all plumbing stub outs and drains must be raised to accommodate the new floor.
2) Additional stencil work by Conrad Schmitt in the west auditorium entrances.
Conrad Schmitt's original bid included lobby and hallway stencils. It was
decided to continue the same pattern in auditorium vestibules. The cost forthis
additional artistic stenciling is $2,278.50.
3) Plumbing repairs. These include replacing air conditioning drains, storm drains
and miscellaneous plumbing repairs.
Change Order No. 6 submitted December 21,2006 in an amount of$71,896.82
includes:
• New and revised lighting. The original specifications for lighting were based on
a decorating scheme designed by LaBiche Architectural Group. The award of
the construction bid included an alternate bid item using the artistic design work
by Conrad Schmitt Studios for painting the lobbywalls,auditorium and corridors.
The design scheme includes beautiful floral patterns in soft pastels, stenciled
and hand painted on wall panels and hand-painted ceiling murals. The lighting
fixtures originally specified are not appropriate for the new design concept.
Included in this change order are new chandeliers for the north and south
lobbies. The contractor allowed$10,715 in his bid for cleaning and repairing the
existing chandeliers. New chandeliers were selected after it was discovered that
the existing chandeliers had damage beyond repair. The price for the four
chandeliers including four mechanical lowering devices, new wiring and wall
controls,and installation is$55,060. In addition, new chandeliers not scheduled
for replacement in the original bid were selected for the Green Room,the Ticket
Lobby and corridors. Most of the cost was offset by the deletion of numerous
fixtures originally specified that did not compliment the architectural integrity of
the building.

6) Ticket Office - The original counter in the Ticket office was scheduled to
remain as it was constructed in 1982. It was not ADA compliant nor is it a
convenient and efficient workspace for staff. New cabinets will be designed
to accommodate computerized ticket processing equipment and additional
staff during crowded sales events.
7) Restroom Partitions- In the original design, the restroom partitions were to be
constructed of "Silestone", a natural quartz product. This material, usually
used for countertops, is heavy and not practical for restroom partition walls
and doors. This material was deleted and substituted with a lighter weight
laminate product resulting in a substantial credit of$42,352.00 to the cost of
the project.
Change Order No. 17 in an amount of$15,064.00 includes:
1) Addition of two new circuits in the north and south corridors for lighting. Two
fixtures will be on separate circuits so as to not overload the main generator
backup circuit used in case of an emergency. This change was made at the
recommendation of the electrical engineer for this project.
2) Auditorium return air system was installed incorrectly during the 1982
renovation. Part of the system was not connected to the air conditioning unit
and electrical conduit was installed incorrectly. According to our Building
Services Manager, there had been unresolved problems with the air
conditioning unit but until the ceiling was opened during the remediation, the
cause of the problem was not known. This cost includes building a new 20 ft.
extension and removing existing grid and plaster.
3) Lamps in the auditorium ceiling are difficult to change because of limited
access. All light bulbs were replaced while scaffolding was in place.
